Why Use Choicemail?

Because it works.

Spam now accounts for about two-thirds of all email. It costs most email users at least 15 minutes a day. Research shows that spam costs companies $400-800 per mailbox every year. And these costs are growing.

Permission-based email management is the only thing that actually solves, or ever will solve, the spam problem. (To learn more, read our whitepaper.) It is 100% effective, and ChoiceMail makes it available to you now.

With ChoiceMail, you will never get another piece of unwanted email because a message can reach your inbox in one of only four ways:

New Features

Multiple identitiesÂ - ChoiceMail now lets your multiple email accounts retrieve only those messages intended for those accounts rather than merging all incoming email into a single account. We have support for retrieving mail for a single email account only. Users can login to CM POP3 server using the format "cm/emailaddress" along with the email address password to get the mail for that email address only.

Approved mailÂ - You can now preview approved mail through the ChoiceMail UI

Permission rulesÂ - Added not operator and a (me) special keyword referring to your sources and aliases.

Permission rulesÂ - You can now reference individual Received headers with an index. This lets you easily check the server from which an email really came. Permission rules now support regular expressions - although not intended for users to edit directly (they can), it will allow more sophisticated rules to be downloaded and installed to block known spam. Transform rules are also implemented to preprocess messages to make it easier to detect spam.

ChallengesÂ - You can now optionally use an alternate (optionally fake) FROM address for challenges. This can be used to (a) prevent your real email address from being validated as live by spammers (b) eliminate bounce-back messages completely and (c) prevent a potential spam trick where a spammer could recognize that a challenge was coming and simply respond with a NEW spam using a NEW fake FROM address, thereby attempting to fill up your POP3 inbox.

Updates

Safe PreviewerÂ - We now include the ability to see the raw message.

PermissionsÂ - Added special keywords that can be used to detect whether the email address in the body of your message is (or is not) in your whitelist (see documentation for more information on how to use this feature)

Enhanced securityÂ - The registration process has been tightened up to remove some theoretically possible breaches.

Fixes

Empty messagesÂ - Corrected a problem where ChoiceMail One could get stuck if the file has a length of 0.

Reject with reasonÂ - Fixed a bug where it sometimes wasn't possible to use spaces in the reason.

General AVÂ support - Added handling for special AV case where user might be getting I/O errors instead of our "nice" AV message.

DialogsÂ - Where possible, increased spacing between controls so that there's less likelihood of characters being cutoff if you are using large fonts.

Empty FROMÂ - Fixed a problem where emails were being deleted automatically when it seemed like there was nothing in the FROM header (even though there was).

Empty FROMÂ - Fixed a bug where an empty FROM header was causing a crash when assertions were enabled

Rejection of system messagesÂ - Was missing filter reason for unverified system messages.

List index out of boundsÂ - Fixed a problem where this error message could appear if you reject a sender with explanation.

Anti-virus collisionsÂ - Added handling for stream errors in case anti-virus removes the temporary files while we are trying toÂ process them

Integer overflowÂ - Fixed a problem where ChoiceMail would not allow mail to be retrieved by client if the total size of the mail was greater than 2Gb

InstallerÂ - Installer will now only install into the DigiPortal Software Applications group.

Setup wizardÂ - Checks that email application is not running more often rather than just once.
